I've always wondered about this

A fresh browser

I have this really bad habit of always clicking the "restore previous session" button every time I start Firefox. I typically have five or six different tabs open and a couple of those are things that I'm planning on getting to when I have more time or some cool thing I found online that I want to buy when I have money. Over time, those tabs turn into three or four and pretty soon I start worrying about when my browser's going to crash from lack of memory.

Every once in a while things get bad enough that when the browser does crash, it freezes up when trying to reload all those tabs. It hasn't happened to me in a while but finally did tonight. Usually it kind of bums me out because I feel like I've lost a connection to something interesting. Tonight though, it actually feels really good. I have a fresh new browser with nothing waiting for my attention. It's amazing how even virtual clutter can drag you down sometimes.
